TEMECULA: Three-car collision injures four

A head-on collision at Via Volcano and Tenaja Road in Temecula
injured four people Saturday afternoon, said Officer Brian Keene of
the California Highway Patrol.

At 2 p.m., a Camaro traveling north on Via Volcano at a high
rate of speed crossed the centerline and collided with an sport
utility vehicle, Keene said. The driver of the Camaro suffered two
broken legs and possibly a broken neck. Rescue workers had to cut
the driver from the car using the Jaws of Life.

Two passengers in the Camaro, ages 9 and 17, suffered minor
injuries, Keen said. The driver of the SUV suffered a broken
leg.

All patients were taken to Inland Valley Medical Center in
Wildomar.

Keene said officers did not believe drugs and alcohol were
involved in the accident.

A Riverside County fire dispatcher said three vehicles were
involved in the accident, but had no further information on the
vehicles.
